Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1152)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to divide by zero error when processing a crafted BMP image. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted file to the application and crash it.


2) Arbitrary file upload (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11523)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to software allows upload of arbitrary files to the system in /nuuonvr.php script. A remote unauthenticated attacker can upload arbitrary file (e.g. with ".php" extension) and execute it on the server.


3) Use-after-free error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11529)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free error when handling malicious input. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trick the victim into loading a specially crafted MKV file, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


4) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11813)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in read_pixel() function in rdtarga.c when processing EOF (end-of-line) characters. A remote attacker can use a specially crafted image to consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-14498)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when processing a crafted 8-bit BMP in which one or more of the color indices is out of range for the number of palette entries within the get_8bit_row in rdbmp.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, pass it to the application, trigger out-of-bounds read error and crash the affected application.
